I have been practicing yoga in the morning and walk in the evening for the last 10 years besides taking metformin+glimipride combination. Diet (strictly vegetarian) is under control except for occasional variations. Still, my blood sugar (type 2) is not under control. Any suggestions for improvement?

Thanks very much. Shall get back with details in due course.
I wonder as to why it is not under control despite doing daily YOGA and taking medicine.
Issue with medicine and food timing
Try fenufiber. Since your physical activity is good you may respond
Check your vitamin D levels. In recent times many Indians are low in vitamin D.further there is good evidence can help control type II diabeties. Please supplement vitamin D along with calcium
Without proof and detailed enquiry, Sree 46, I hypothetically call your situation a case of over medication! Since 2005 I have brought my A1C to below 6.4% without drugs. Twice it was from over 11%. This time only after it came to 6.0% from peak of 11.6% in January, did I take Metformin (August 2014) before a party meal.
Yoga may perhaps help as much as Homeopathy does i.e. benefit within placebo range.
The secret to managing blood glucose for both Type I & Type II may be restriction of carb intake. In the past decade LCHF is gasining favor in Canada, Ireland, Sweden and even US.
[Yes, you have to look at hormones, vitamin and mineral dimension including Vitamin D, K1, K2 etcetera]
You are great! Keep it up. Try to avoid occasional variations. Wish you best of luck all the way. Regards, Gurumani. Age 64.
As recyan has suggested post details about your diet, drugs, BS levels, lipids so members can give suggestions.
what is sugar level now?Dose of metformin and glimi?
When oral drugs fail to maintain blood sugar in limits, Dr. should definitely change fully or partially to insulin !!!
Thank you, Meetu !!!!!
